Multi-chamber rotary piston-engine

ABSTRACT

A multi-chamber rotary piston internal combustion engine includes an engine housing having interior walls defining a plurality of internal cylindrical cavities, at least one of the cavities being disposed in a first housing level and at least one other of the cavities being disposed in a second housing level spaced apart but adjacent to the first housing level. A plurality of rotary pistons and cylinders are movably mounted relative to the cavities which, in operation, cooperatively define, at least partially with the housing interior walls, a multiplicity of sequentially-arranged chambers including a gas intake chamber, and at least one gas compression chamber located in the first housing level and an ignition chamber, gas expansion chamber and a gas expulsion chamber located in the second housing level, with the cylinders, pistons and cavities being operatively arranged so that gas intake, compression, ignition, expansion and gas expulsion take place simultaneously during one revolution.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to the principle of a multi-chamber rotary piston internal combustion engine.

In contrast to the multi-chamber rotary piston internal combustion engine according to the invention, most internal combustion engines today function as piston engines between fixed volume limits, which do not allow the working gas in the cylinder to relax to ambient pressure during the expansion stroke.

The kinetic and heat energy still contained in the exhaust gases is being utilized, in the meantime, by ever more developed techniques to improve the energy balance of such internal combustion engines. For example, exhaust gas turbocharging technology has gained great importance.

Furthermore, improvements are achieved by more precise metering of fuel supply by means of injection pumps, as well as improvement of the air conditions by means of air compression technology. Increasing the number of intake and outlet valves for gas exchange also contributes to increasing the degree of effectiveness of these engines.

However, the structure of today's piston engines will always set limits for optimization of the energy balance. The unutilized release of a high percentage of the energy contained in the fuel to the environment cannot be avoided with this technology.

Until now, the development of rotary piston engines has also not resulted in solutions which yielded convincing advantages as compared with the former concepts and were able to succeed on the market.

The best-known result of this development is the Wankel engine. However, it also does not offer any decisive improvement with regard to energy yield and environmental impact. Its current market importance can practically be ignored.

The idea of a multi-chamber engine in which all the motor functions take place simultaneously, next to one another, is also pursued with different technical solutions by the patent applications and/or patent Nos.: DE 2,828,000 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,170,978, as well as FR 2,105,695; JP 57,203,802 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,658,779. In this connection, reference must also be made to the following patent documents: U.S. Pat. No. 788,179 U.S. Pat. No. 3,073,188 U.S. Pat. No. 3,883,277 as well as U.S. Pat. No. 1,464,382 and DE 914, 686. However, the motor concepts among these documents exclusively involve piston and cylinder units which run internally, which differ in practically all essential parts from the technical solutions of the multi-chamber rotary piston internal combustion engine presented here. Obviously, it was not possible to achieve market success with their technical suggestions until now, either.

The multi-chamber motor with two specific functional units presented with the present application is new: Cylinder and piston combinations which run on the inside for the functions of intake, and compression, on the one hand, correspond with cylinder and piston units which run on the outside for the functions of combustion, expansion and gas expulsion, on the other hand.

It remains true that current internal combustion engines, with energy yields below 50%, represent an enormous waste of resources, particularly in view of the ever decreasing supplies of these resources. Technical solutions to improve the energy balance of conventional engine technology are obviously limited and only possible with significant effort and expense.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide the principle of a multi-chamber rotary piston internal combustion engine which offers the technical prerequisites for a better energy yield and puts less of a burden on the environment than previous internal combustion engines.

It is a more particular object of the present invention to provide a multi-chamber rotary piston internal combustion engine with several chambers arranged one after the other in two engine housing levels.

This task is accomplished, according to the invention, by the characteristics indicated in Claim 1, namely by a multi-chamber rotary piston internal combustion engine with several chambers (18a and b, 19, 29, 30a and b, 27) arranged one after the other, in which the engine functions of intake, compression, end compression, ignition, combustion, expansion and gas discharge take place simultaneously, next to one another, during a revolution, with the gas flow through the individual chambers being regulated with rotation symmetry in the logic of this engine, via a central gear control shaft (52), by means of gear wheel transmissions (53a, b, 40, 17, 15, 39) and by cylinders and pistons which rotate in/around the chamber(s), in controlled manner.

DESCRIPTION OF A PRINCIPAL EMBODIMENT AND ITS FUNCTIONS

Referring now in detail to the drawings and, in particular, FIGS. 1-8, therein illustrated is a multi-chamber rotary piston internal combustion engine which has a housing 20 with an intake chamber 18a, a compression chamber 18b and a second compression chamber 19, as well as cylinder and piston arrangements which rotate on the inside and are moved, on a first inner plane or level of the housing. Furthermore, an ignition chamber 29, an expansion chamber 30a and a gas expulsion chamber 30b with cylinder and piston arrangements which rotate on the outside and are arranged on a second outer plane or level axially spaced from the first level.

The intake and compression chambers are formed in a hollow cylinder 18, between the double rotary piston 1, 2 and the first rotary cylinder 3, as well as the lateral surfaces of the housing wall 20. The double or twin rotary piston 1, 2 are rigidly connected with the piston shaft 5 and 6. A gear wheel 17 is seated on the piston shaft 5. The double rotary piston 1, 2 has an acute angle position relative to the second compression chamber 19. In this position, during the bottom dead point of the compression piston 11, the connection between the chambers 18a, 18b and 19 is interrupted. The hollow cylinder 18 has an intake opening 12 for combustion gases and an overflow opening towards the second compression chamber 19.

The second compression chamber 19 is a cylindrical hollow chamber with an overflow connection to the control piston cylinder bushing 38. A piston 11 which can be displaced axially is moved in the second compression chamber 19. The compression piston 11 is controlled by way of the cam disks 13 on the cam shaft 14 and the gear wheel 15. The compression piston 11 has an acute angle position at its bottom dead point, in which there is no connection to the adjacent chambers 18a, 18b as well as to the ignition chamber 29.

The ignition chamber 29 is a cavity between two control pistons 24, 25, which rotate concentrically around a common axis in a axially half open hollow cylinder 38. These control pistons 24, 25 have an entry angle position at which there is a connection between the second compression chamber 19 and the ignition chamber 29. Furthermore, the control pistons 24 and 25 have a combustion angle position in which the connection to the second compression chamber 19 is interrupted and the control pistons are moved apart in such a way that a connection is produced between the ignition chamber 29 and the expansion chamber 30a.

The screw housing 26 including the control piston cylinder bushing 38 as the stator lie eccentrically within the rotary expansion cylinder 22, in such a way that this second cylinder 22 can form the expansion chamber 30a and the gas expulsion chamber 30b with the pivot piston 23 which is coupled with it.

The expansion chamber 30a is limited by the rotary cylinder 22 with the pivot piston 23 coupled with it and reaching through the cylinder 22; furthermore, by the surface profile of the screw housing 26 and the lateral walls of the engine housing 20.

The gas expulsion chamber 30b is formed by the front face of the pivot piston 23, the rotary cylinder 22 as well as by the screw housing 26 and the lateral walls of the engine housing 20.

The pivot piston 23 has guide elements 32, 33, and guide devices 42, 43 are present in the engine housing wall 20, for forced guidance of the oscillating pivot piston 23. At the rear end of the screw housing 26--seen in the direction of rotation--outlet openings 28 lead into an exhaust chamber 27 which passes through the screw housing 26.

An external gear crown 39, which is connected with the central gear control shaft 52 via gear wheels 40, 53b, is seated on the rotary expansion cylinder 22.

The engine has a central gear control shaft 52, by means of which gear control shaft 52, the double rotary pistons 1, 2, the rotary cylinder 3, the compression piston 11, the control pistons 24, 25 as well as the rotary expansion cylinder 22 with the pivot piston 23 coupled with it are controlled with rotation symmetry, by means of gear wheels 53a, 53b, 40, 39, 15 and 17. The gear control shaft 52 is also in gear engagement.

The method of operation of the engine according to the invention will now be explained.

Intake/Precompression

In the cylinder bushing (18) defined by the engine housing wall (20), on two axes offset relative to one another, two rotation pistons (1+2) are moved on the one axle, and the first rotation cylinder (3) which is movably connected with these pistons by means of the cylinder sliding blocks (8+9) is moved on the other axle as an interior rotor. The twin rotation piston I (1) is affixed to a shaft (5), which is held in the center of the cylinder bushing (18) surrounded by the engine housing wall (20) by means of the piston shaft pin (7). On the same axle pin (7) with the axle (6), the twin piston II (2) runs as a follower of the twin piston I (1). (FIG. 2 to 9). In the flat sidewalls of the cylinder bushing (18), guide grooves (16) provide a rotation bed for the flanges (4) of the first rotation cylinder (3). The axle of the first rotation cylinder (3) lies on the diameter of the cylinder bushing (18), its diameter is less than that of the cylinder bushing (18).

At the peak (63) on the corner edge of the cylinder bushing (18) and the cylinder wall of the compression piston (11), the first rotation cylinder (3) seals the compressed mixture (18b) off with regard to the fresh gas being taken into the chamber (18a). Towards the opposite rounded part of the cylinder bushing (18), it forms the sickle-shaped intake and compression chamber (18a, b). (FIG. 2-8). The sliding blocks (8, 9) which are affixed movably on the inner cylinder (3) by means of axle pins (10) allow the cylinder ends to slide up and down on the end surfaces of the pistons during the piston and cylinder revolutions.

During one revolution, the two twin pistons (1+2) move relative to one another in a manner comparable to the opening and closing of a pair of scissors, and thus equalize their different angle positions relative to the inner cylinder (3) during the revolution. At each revolution, the rotating twin piston I (1) and its follower piston 11 (2) form two chambers (18a+b) which are constantly changing in volume, in such a manner that the compression chamber (18b) is reduced to as little as zero between the front face of the piston I (1) and the walls of the cylinder bushing (18) and of the first rotation cylinder (3), and the intake chamber (18a) is increased from zero to its full volume between the rear end face of the piston II (2) and the walls of the cylinder bushing (18) and of the rotation cylinder (3).

In FIGS. 2-2a and FIGS. 3-3a, as well as FIGS. 4 to 9 show the function and progression of a revolution of these moved parts during intake and compression, in the first housing level.

In FIG. 4, the intake chamber (18a) was filled with fresh gas through the gas-mixture inlet opening (12). The rotational movement of the twin piston I (1) in a counterclockwise direction compresses the gas mixture, until it has received the greatest possible compression pursuant to the position in FIG. 9.

With this, the process of gas filling and compression in the intake and compression chambers 18a, b, has been completed, and the same process repeats itself when the twin piston I (1) continues to rotate in a counterclockwise direction.

End Compression

The compression piston (11) is pushed up by the precompressed mixture, due to the movements of the twin piston I (1) pursuant to the positions as in FIGS. 6 to 9. The movements of the piston (11) are determined by the cam disks (13). In the position pursuant to FIGS. 3, 3a as well as FIG. 7, the piston (11) reaches its upper dead center. After precompression has taken place, the cam plates (13) press the compression piston (11) down to its bottom dead center. This happens during the movement of the twin piston I (1) from the position pursuant to FIG. 9 to the positions pursuant to FIGS. 4 and 5. (FIGS. 9, 4, 5, 2, 2a). The compression piston (11) already starts the compression movement in the opposite direction after it has reached the upper dead center pursuant to the position in FIG. 7 even before the twin piston I (1) has reached its upper dead center position pursuant to FIG. 9.

At the same time with the compression in the chambers (18b and 19), the ignition chamber (29) is filled, beginning approximately with the position of the twin piston I (1) pursuant to FIGS. 6 and 7 and the position of the pivot piston (23) on the expansion cylinder (22) pursuant to FIGS. 14, 15, 16. This becomes possible because the piston valve I (24) is held in place in its position pursuant to FIG. 14 by means of a control mechanism and the piston valve II (25), which is freely movable in this phase of the revolution, is moved further by means of the gas pressure which builds up (FIG. 15), to its position pursuant to FIG. 16, in which the maximum possible volume of the ignition chamber (29) between the two piston valves (24, 25) has been reached. The position reached by the piston valves (24, 25) in FIG. 16 is maintained by them until just before ignition of the gas mixture pursuant to FIGS. 11, 12. The ignition compression of the gas mixture in the ignition chamber (29) has been reached when the cam disks (13) have pushed the compression piston (11) down to its bottom dead center.

After this position of the compression piston (11) has been reached, the second compression chamber (19) is entirely closed off towards the ignition chamber (29). (FIGS. 4, 5, 11, 13, 18 and 19.)

Ignition/Expansion/Work Cycle

When the compression piston (11) reaches its bottom dead center, the end-compressed mixture in the ignition chamber (29) is ignited and moved further by the piston valve (24) in this phase. (FIGS. 11, 12, 13). Now the working gas can escape from the ignition chamber (29) and do its work. The ignited mixture presses into the expansion chamber (30a) and there presses the pivot piston (23) and with it the expansion rotation cylinder (22) further in a clockwise direction (FIGS. 12 to 15). At the same time, the pivot piston (23) pushes the exhaust gases which are still present in the cylinder space (30b) from the previous expansion cycle through the exhaust gas outlet openings (28) into the exhaust chamber (27) located in the interior of the screw housing (26) with its end face, and from there further through the side wall (20) of the engine housing and the exhaust pipe (54) into the open, (FIGS. 12 to 17). Guided along the guide wall (42) by the sliding block (32) and in the guide groove (43) by the guide connector (33), the pivot piston regains its position around the screw housing (26) and the piston valves (24, 25) pursuant to FIG. 11. The tilting and pivoting movements are supported by the tension springs in the pivot piston axle (35) and the tipping sliding block (34).

It becomes clear that in this design, the entire kinetic energy which is released from the expanding gas mixture by relaxation to ambient pressure can be converted to forward drive, since the dwell time of the gases in the expansion chamber (30a) allows a nearly complete relaxation.

In the case of piston engines whose pistons move back and forth between fixed volume limits at extremely short cycle times, complete relaxation of the gas pressure to ambient pressure is not possible.

Thus a revolution has been completed while the engine functions of intake, compression, ignition, combustion, expansion/work cycle and gas expulsion occur simultaneously next to one another in these chambers (18a, b, 19, 29, 30a, b, 27) arranged one behind the other.

Control Mechanisms

The technique described here, with the cylinders and pistons rotating in the individual chambers, requires control with rotation symmetry. These control mechanisms are accomplished as follows in the engine according to the invention:

The torque of the expansion cylinder (22) is transferred to the gear control shaft (52) by means of the outside gear crown (39) and the gear wheels (40, 53b). As already described above, the twin piston I (1) is driven on the piston shaft (5) by the gear control shaft (52), via the gear wheels (53a, 17). The twin piston I (1) moves the internal rotor (3) embedded in the guide grooves (16) as its follower, and the twin piston II (2) on the axle (6).

Via the same gear wheel transmission, the cam shaft (14) with the cam disks (13) are further moved by the gear wheel (15), and thus the stroke movement of the compression piston (11) is achieved.

In the position of its bottom dead center, the compression piston (11) seals tightly with the twin piston t (1), on the one hand, and towards the piston valve cylinder bushing (38) with the piston valves I and II (24, 25), on the other hand. (FIGS. 2, 2a, 4, 5).

The tight seal of the compression piston (11) towards the ignition chamber (29) now allows the piston valves (24, 25) to continue turning with the compressed gas mixture in the piston valve cylinder space (38), as described above.

With this method of working, a clearly improved degree of effectiveness as compared with conventional internal combustion engines is achieved, by means of

the fact that all the engine functions occur during one revolution,

a more advantageous power transmission due to the specific cylinder and piston configuration (functional units which run on the inside for compression and functional units which run on the outside for combustion/expansion) as well as the advantageous gear wheel transmissions for the piston and cylinder movements,

an almost complete conversion of the kinetic energy of the ignition gases into torque, since the dwell time of the combustion gases in the expansion chamber allows nearly complete relaxation and thereby perform more work.

In this way, the following are advantageously obtained:

a significant reduction of the fuel consumption,

minimal engine noises, since there is no afterburning of the exhaust gases,

minimization of pollutant emissions (depending on the fuel), and

in total, a reduction in the burden on the environment.

A principal embodiment of the multi-chamber rotary piston internal combustion engine according to the invention is shown in the drawings. These show: FIG. 1--a schematic representation of the engine according to the invention by means of an overall cross-section. However, the cylinder bushing (18) is shown without the twin pistons (1 and 2) and the first rotation cylinder (3), likewise the cylinder bushing (38) is not shown with the piston valves (24 and 25), and the second rotation cylinder (22) is shown without the pivot piston (23). In this overall representation, the arrangement of the chambers in the first and second housing levels becomes more clearly visible with this.
